Research Abstract

At the end of the nineteenth century, new-type indigenous bankers appeared in Iran.
These bankers grew rapidly, but they were far behind the British and Russian banks, which were founded in Iran, in the scale of operation. The Russian bank lent a large amount of money without security to the influential iranians in order to defeat the British bank. The British bank influenced the indigenous bankers through its control over the foreign exchange market.
Many indigenous bankers went bankrupt before long.
